Harmony Inc. Has provided an opportunity for women to find their voice in an art form that has become a worldwide phenomenon and for many, a favourite pastime.
The organization is now celebrating its 65th anniversary.
By providing a gathering place to sing and express themselves through music, thousands of women have experienced community and artistic expression through barbershop-style singing.
Locally, the Surgartones, members of Harmony Inc., perform at a wide array of venues and events in the region. The Sugartones are moving into their 12th year as a chapter of Harmoney Inc.
With a new director, Jeanette Martin, the Sugartones are always working on a new fresh line-up of songs to perform.
The Sugartones practice on Monday nights at the Kingsmere Retirement Suites clubhouse in Alliston and women of all ages are invited to visit a rehearsal to see what it is all about.
Harmony Inc., has over 65 choruses and 2,000 members. It is currently celebrating Harmony Awareness Week.
Harmony, Inc. continues to cultivate a diverse, inclusive, and equitable community where all feel valued and respected, by empowering all women through education, friendship and singing. All women, regardless of age, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or ability, are celebrated, encouraged, and belong here.
